HC Deb 26 November 1914 vol 68 c1318
103. Sir JOHN SPEAR

asked the President of the Local Government Board, if eligible men engaged in the Government valuation work are at liberty to join the Army or have they been refused the right to do so; is he aware that in consequence of many land agents having let their clerks join the Army it is impossible for them to make the necessary appeals within the prescribed time; and, under these circumstances, will he take steps to provide that longer time shall be given during which appeals can be made.

Mr. MONTAGU

I would refer the hon. Member to the answers given to the hon. Member for Newcastle-on-Tyne on the 16th instant, and to the answer given to the hon. Member for Oxford University on the 26th August last.
